I think Windows peaked with 7. The last time that you felt like the upgrade was worth it or at least not a step backwards.

Yeah, I was going to say 7 as well.

This is exactly right. I suffered through vista, loved the hell out of 7, and right as 8 came out, someone offered me an iMac for cheap. Started learning OS X and when 8 came out and I saw what was going on, I never went back.
